So far its just for California schools, but I hope to see it expanded sometime in the near future. Study.com just RT'd it so I know they're looking at it.

I wonder why Study.com is looking at it. It's just about finding a course within the CSU/CC system here, nothing to do with alternative course providers at all.
It wouldn't really work as an expansion, but if each state did something like it, I guess that might work. Trying to tie together thousands of schools might be difficult, but tying together the 23 CSU's with 113 CC's here would work well. They really SHOULD be working together.

Isn't there already a tool that does something to figure out transfer credits between CCs and other schools in CA: http://www.assist.org/web-assist/welcome.html
Edited to add: I guess the big difference is this Quottly platform saves students the effort of enrolling at (different) schools offering the courses they need.,.

Yes, I use ASSIST when helping people figure out which courses they should take when they are going to go to a CC, and then transfer to a particular CSU or UC school.
This tool that they're discussing actually helps you find a course that you need at one of the 113 CC's or 23 CSU's in the term you want to take it.

I assume they want their courses added to it as alternatives

Like I said, it has nothing whatsoever to do with alternative course providers at all. Nothing. Nada. It's a search engine within the system.

Quottly, the service provider, does searching over a much wider pool of schools. It would make sense for Study.com to either be listed as an alternate source, or to place ads on relevant searches. Especially if they could target students from schools that take their credits.

yes, i said I assume they want it to be added to the system at some point. you're saying its not that way now. the two things are not mutually exclusive, thanks to the magic of programming, things that are not there now might be added later
